For Sauce
In a saucepot add in your chilies and boil until rehydrated and soft. Let cool down when done.
Remove any seeds you may not want and place your chilies in the blender, along with your salt, garlic, and the liquid you boiled your chiles in. Blend until smooth and strain into a sauce pot. Set to the side
Salsa Dulce
Dice your onion and add them to a small bowl. To the bowl add your sugar, vinegar, salt, and oregano and mix.
Add in your water and adjust ingredients. Sauce should be sweet and tangy.
Putting it together
Fry your tortilla, you want it to be soft but still have some crunch to it. Once fried, dip it into your sauce and shake off the excess. For a more authenic experience dip your tortilla in the salsa before frying. It is more messier but trully authentic
Add your cotija to your enchiladas and a tablespoon of the salsa dulce.
Fold them over and add your tomatoes and potatoes off to the side. Dont forget to also add your meat preference adn some nice green lettuce
Salsa will stay good for up to a week in an airtight container in the fridge. Will stay good for up to two months in the freezer
